DEAR DR. GOTT: My doctor told me I have diabetes. My choice was to control it by dieting, and my doctor set me up to see a dietician. I followed the diet and later asked my doctor for a prescription for a glucose meter so I could monitor my levels. She refused. I asked her again later, leaving her a message, and she never called me back. Is it standard for a doctor to refuse a prescription for a meter to activate insurance coverage when controlling diabetes by dieting?

It took only a few seconds for Johnson to make sure her blood sugar was at an acceptable level.
